Alright let's get this started. Remember this was once a 1x1 for me so most of the world is fleshed out. Still got room for one or two more if anyone else is interested.

For centuries the Grave Keepers have defended the crypts from grave robbers, necromancer's, and things far worse. But not only do they defend the dead from the living, but also the living from the dead. It is a terrifying, dangerous, and thankless job. But someone has to do it.

Setting is the city of Ashtyn, a medieval city. The city has three massive cemeteries. One in the inner circle of the city, for the normal citizens. One outside the walls for criminals, the poor, and homeless, this is the largest of the three, and many here are buried in unadorned unmarked graves. The last is located underneath the city, in a large catacomb system, this is reserved for the rich and city heroes.

Expect ghosts both malevolent and benign.

Normal rules. If your going to be gone for long periods of time please let us know so we can work something out. Be kind to each other in the ooc, you can hate each other in the role-play, just be polite in chat. Try to give at least a paragraph length post, I understand that's not always possible, but please try to avoid one liners (unless your Ash Williams in which case, Groovy.).

Character Sheet follows, please post in the ooc until I approve it for the character tab.


If you have any questions feel free to ask.

She's a work in progress at the moment, got asked to stay a little longer than usual while babysitting. Possibly thinking about making another character as well too, but we'll see after she's complete.

EDIT: Ready for Review.

@WeepingLiberty I feel like I've seen that character image before... have we role played before? Something about exploring a new land I think? Correct me if I'm wrong but I know I've seen that image before.

I don't know. You're username rings a bell but if we did RP it must have been from my early days here. Other than that, the face claim probably wasn't me... I've only recently strayed away from my usual character type, so playing a blonde is a rare thing for me.

Posting my cs, it only needs a picture. Also, I've some questions I gotta ask. First of all, can the Grave Keepers use magic, and if so what types? Where do they stay? Can they live inside the graveyards they protect? And, do they carry standard issue weapons or are we free to write in our own? Thanks in advance, and tell me if I have to change anything.

@Turbowraith Hogarth is good and in answer to your questions, Grave Keepers don't have magic per say. Most are born with, or develop from constant contact, a peculiar sensitivity to the dead. They can see and sense more ghosts then normal folks, and they can understand the wailing speech of the dead. The dead are attracted to them as they in a instinctively sense that these people can understand them. These abilities can lead to an affinity towards necromancy yet all are sworn never to use the dark arts, even in service of the job.

Grave Keepers can live anywhere they can afford, and to be honest my character is living in the middle class cemetery. They have no formal housing yet they do have an office were they hire, receive pay, and get mail.

Feel free to write in your own weapons, there is a standard uniform but it is only for mainly for special occasions, yet is required by the nobility if you want to enter the crypts below the city. Issued equipment is the most important tool of the job. A four foot long shovel. It is of a sturdy build and when taken care of, sharp as an axe.

@WeepingLiberty Your character is good as well. By the way does she know exactly how her father died and would it be alright if my character knew him?

@Cuddle Pot

It would be cool if your character knew him, considering she has very little clue as to anything about her family. Her foster parents didn't even tell her that her mother was a witch, so.... XD Could present itself as an interesting window into her past for her depending on how much your character knew about him and his lover.

Oh I'm sorry I was referring to your foster father since he was a Grave Keeper.

You know, I was thinking about that in the shower. I was like "hmmm, that awkward moment when Nova has two dead dads and Libby probs picked the wrong one." XD

Yeah, knowing him would have been cool too. Just ignore me and my silliness.

Dude, I feel that! I work on the weekends, so I find I have more free time during school hours than my own weekend. Sad. T.T Anyways, looking forward to it when you get around to it.
